Okay, so Trump was miffed about the whole 'missing out on the Nobel Peace Prize' thing and FIFA obligingly created a whole new peace prize to hand him, despite being a non-political organization, to soothe his ego (not sure who the other candidates were) but this got me wondering, if he had missed out on that award as well, who else would have conjured up a peace prize to give him?
Would Trump's ego have just as gladly accepted a peace prize from Fox news, or Walmart?

Trump has been known to award himself conjured - up and wholly fictional prizes, if no one else will.
@moonbus saidMaybe someone will give him the 'stable genius award'.....

@shavixmir saidNot bizarre at all, when you look at who gets pardoned and who gave generously to his 'campaign fund' -- there is a significant overlap between those two groups. Wanna commit some white-collar crime? Doesn't hurt to grease the autopen.
It’s too bizarre to comprehend.
The corrupt football association inventing a peace prize to give to a narcisstic wanna-be dicatator who’s having civilians bombed in boats.
Even the Grimm brothers are like: “Yeah, that’s just too weird, now this beanstalk…”

Didja hear, when a reporter asked him why he had pardoned Zhao, he answered that he did not know about it !!
@moonbus saidHe signs so many things he doesn’t have the time to read them. “Here Mr. President, just sign there and then pick it up and smile for the camera.”📸

@wildgrass saidKeep that knowledge sir away from Trump.

@wildgrass saidMust be why Trump likes their hamberders.

@moonbus saidIsn't FIFA a multi billion dollar entity that gave him the award? Or did Trump just make everything up?

I suppose your accomplishments are worthy of note.

quote from the FIFA web site:
The President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, was presented with the inaugural “FIFA Peace Prize – Football Unites the World” by FIFA President Gianni Infantino during the Final Draw for the FIFA World Cup 2026™ at the iconic John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington DC.
The FIFA President commended President Trump’s tireless efforts to bring people together in a spirit of peace.
“This is what we want from a leader; A leader that cares about the people. We want to live in a safe world, in a safe environment. We want to unite – that’s what we do here today, that’s what we’ll do at the (FIFA) World Cup, Mr President,” Gianni Infantino said in presenting the award.

I've emphasised "inaugural" because this fake prize was clearly invented specifically to flatter Trump's ego.
FIFA awarding a peace prize makes as much sense as the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarding one: 'movies unite people.'
